Norse Mythology in Anime

 This blog is tough to do as I didn’t know anything about Norse mythology because I had to do a lot of research and reading. I’m even writing this when I’m sick because I can’t let some flu virus get in the way of this. I will be comparing anime characters I like to Norse mythology; this is a series of mine where I get something random (aka blank put it in anime), and I make a blog about it like Greek mythology and Chinese philosophy (yin and yang). This time I’m doing Norse Mythology suggested by my good friend Twin, who slightly inspired me to do this even though I already had it in my planner for so long, so I may as well make it when I’m ill. It’s the next day of writing as my head wasn’t computing, so here goes nothing, although I am worse than before.

Shounen is also considered to be a genre itself by a lot of people and these anime shouldn’t be even for that age range either even though Japan has stigma about what it considers to be for adults, I know that Japan is way different from western culture but I’m talking about the demographic to the western world as well so keep that in mind. All demographic info will be from MyAnimeList. This blog has some political correctness and is purely ou

Nichijou

 Introduction I am going to be talking about one of my favourite anime called Nichijou which literally means My Everyday Life. I am going to be talking one of my favourite Anime called Nichijou which means My Everyday Life, having a title called My Ordinary Life for this Anime is very ironic because this Anime is far from being ordinary. It is an amusing contrast that this Anime takes itself very seriously like it is an actual school anime but also tries to be as random and as absurd as it can be which is why it is so enjoyable because it makes even the smallest details like Mio hair beads thing into an entire comedic stories which are very impressive. This attention to more information is insanely genius because it builds up this fantastic story just for the punchline, which is sometimes very short. The execution of it is intelligently done as it is hilarious, which makes it the best comedy anime you can find. There is never a dull moment watching this Anime as it is just filled with
